18.One of my fondest (61)memories(memory) as a child is going to the river and sitting on the bank.There I would watch the bamboo trees bend (62)under the pressure from the wind and then watch them return (63)elegantly(elegant) to their original position when the wind (64)had died或died(die) down.
When I think about the bamboo trees'ability (65)to return(return) to its original position,the word"resilience(適應(yīng)力)"comes to mind.Have you ever felt like you were at your breaking point?Life is (66)a mixture of good times and bad times,and happy moments and unhappy moments.Always keep (67)it in mind that a measure of hope will take you through the unpleasant situation.With hope for a better tomorrow,things may not be as bad as they seem to be.The unpleasant situation may be much (68)easier(easy) to deal with if the result is worth (69)having(have).
The next time you are experiencing one of bad times or unhappy moments,(70)which take you close to your breaking point,bend but don't break!

分析 本文主要描述的是面對困境如何調(diào)整心態(tài),要像竹子一樣有"彈性".

解答 61.memories 62.under 63.elegantly 64.had died或died 65.to return 66.a(chǎn) 67.it 68.easier   69.having 70.which
61.memories 本題主要考查名詞復(fù)數(shù).根據(jù) my fondest 可知,此空應(yīng)填名詞,由句首 one of 可知應(yīng)為名詞復(fù)數(shù),意為"我"最喜愛的記憶之一是….故正確答案為 memories.
62.under 本題主要考查固定搭配.under the pressure 是固定搭配,意為"在壓力下",此句意為"竹子會在風的壓力下變彎".故正確答案為 under.
63.elegantly 本題主要考查副詞.修飾動詞 return 應(yīng)用形容詞 elegant 的副詞形式 elegantly,意為"優(yōu)雅地回來".故正確答案為 elegantly.
64.had died或died 本題主要考查動詞的時態(tài).根據(jù) when 可知,此空為從句的謂語動詞,由前文可知,作者是在回憶以前的亊,所以此處應(yīng)用過去時或過去完成時.故正確答案為 had died/died.
65.to return 本題主要考查固定搭配.結(jié)合句意,此處要說的是竹子復(fù)原的能力,the ability to do sth.是固定搭配,意為"做某事的能力".故正確答案為 to return.
66.a(chǎn) 本題主要考查冠詞.mixture 意為"混合物",是可數(shù)名詞,前面加不定冠詞,又因為 mixture 以非元音音素開頭,所以用不定冠詞 a.故正確答案為 a.
67.it 本題主要考查形式賓語.keep it in mind that 意為"記住某亊",it 為形式賓語,真正賓語是 that 引導(dǎo)的從句.故正確答案為 it.
68.easier 本題主要考查形容詞比較級.結(jié)合句意,如果結(jié)果是值得的,這種不愉快的情況可能會更容易處理.根據(jù)上文 much 可知此處應(yīng)用 easy 的比較級形式 easier.故正確答案為 easier.
69.having 本題考查固定搭配.be worth doing 是固定搭配,意為"值得(做)".故正確答案為 having.
70.which 本題主要考查定語從句.分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此空所引導(dǎo)的 take you close to your breaking point 為非限制性定語從句,從句中缺少 take 的主語,關(guān)系代詞 which 指代主句中的 times or moments.故正確答案為 which.

點評 考生在對題目進行作答之前,要先對題干進行詳細閱讀,檢查題目中是否有提示詞語存在;而后判斷出所填詞語在句子中所充當?shù)木渥映煞,例如,主語、謂語等;最后根據(jù)其所充當?shù)木渥映煞,加之其所處句子的語態(tài)等,選擇詞語的正確形式,例如,動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞或者過去分詞,或者形容詞的比較或者最高級的使用等.
在句子中沒有提示詞或者標志詞存在時,考生要根據(jù)句子中所填詞語的位置,判斷所填詞語的詞性,例如,連接詞、定冠詞或者不定冠詞、代詞或者介詞等.定冠詞以及不定冠詞的位置通常在名詞之前,起到對名詞進行限制的作用.而代詞則分為形容詞性物主代詞、名詞性代詞、指示代詞和不定代詞等.在運用介詞的時候,往往考查介詞的固定搭配,其中包括動詞、形容詞等與介詞的搭配.

8.Teenagers have fewer friends than 20years ago,research has shown---despite the increasing popularity of social media.
A study carried out by experts at The University of Queensland in Australia,found teens felt less lonely than two decades ago---but that they have poorer social networks.
A survey of more than 285,000US high school students carried out between 1991and 2012found young people had fewer friends with whom to interact,but less desire for more friends.
The Globe and Mail quotes the findings of the research,printed in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin,which suggests economic changes may have helped increased individuality (個體意識) among young people.
The authors behind the study wrote,"Greater economic opportunities offer individuals more freedom to manage their own money,decide whom to date and decide whom to marry,reducing the influence of relatives and giving people more freedom,which may increase individualism."
"Economic changes lead to increased individuality,which could lead to decreasing interest in friends,increasing self-reliance,increasing self-esteem (自尊) and decreasing loneliness."
Lead researcher,Dr.David Clark said further research on cultures outside the US would help determine if modernization is the root cause of the observed results.
He said,"If other cultures show the same pattern of reduced loneliness in the face of poorer social networks,this would support the idea that modernization is responsible."
The findings have shown that the growing use of social networking sites has had a negative effect on the quality of people's friendships.
A study from 2006by sociologists at Duke University also showed that on average most adults only have two people they can talk to about the most important subjects in their lives while one quarter had no close friends at all.
9.Compared with 20years ago,what do we know about teenagers today?B
A.They feel more lonely.
B.They have fewer friends.
C.They have wider social networks.
D.They are more eager to make friends.
10.What may economic changes make teens do today?C
A.Desire more friends.
B.Feel more lonely.
C.Be more independent.
D.Make money more easily.
11.In Dr.David Clark's view,D.
A.some adults have no close friends at all
B.teens should get away from social networks
C.a(chǎn)ll cultures show teens today feel less lonely
D.modernization may cause teens'reduced loneliness.

9.Two young giant-panda twins born in the United States have returned home to China,but are struggling to adapt to the language and food.
The 3-year-old sisters,Mei Lun and Mei Huan,were the first surviving panda twins to be born in the United States,and were returned to China from Zoo Atlanta on Nov.5.But the pair still understand English better than Chinese,and prefer American biscuits to Chinese bread.
A zoo-keeper said that his main concern is that the pair are so addicted to American biscuits that everything they eat-from bamboos to apples-has to be mixed with biscuits.They even want to snack on (零食) biscuits when drinking water.
The zoo-keeper is trying to wean them off their biscuit habit,gradually replacing the American food with Chinese bread.Mei Huan is adapting,but Mei Lun doesn't want to touch the unfamiliar bread.
Mei Lun is the livelier of the two,often jumping onto the roof and hanging upside down from a rail,but her slightly younger sister Mei Huan is calmer,preferring to sit still,observe her new environment and occasionally snack on bamboo.
A language barrier is also reported.While the pair respond to their own names,and understand some English phrases such as"come here,"they don't understand the Sichuan dialect of Chinese.
The news caused some laughter on Chinese social media,with some users commenting that the pandas would soon get used to Sichuan's famously spicy cuisine.

5.Based on the passage,which statement do you think is right?D
A.The panda twins can fit in well in Sichuan.
B.The panda twins are only fond of Sichuan food and dishes.
C.The panda twins have been used to the new environment very quickly.
D.It's hard for the panda twins to get used to the new environment soon.
6.What does the underlined part"wean them off"in the fourth paragraph mean?A
A.help them get rid of.
B.help them form.
C.help them strengthen.
D.help them keep.
7.From the passage we learn that of the two sisters,B.
A.Mei Huan mainly eats bamboo
B.Mei Lun is living a more active life
C.Mei Huan is not smarter than Mei Lun
D.Mei Lun is as quiet as her younger sister.

7.As a young girl growing up in the 1930s,I always wanted to fly a plane,but back then it was almost unheard of for a woman to do that.I got a taste of that dream in 2001,when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday.But the experience turned out to be very dull.Around that time,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive.So when our retirement community announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have,I decided to write about my dream.
In the essay,I wrote about my desire to skydive,stating George Brush Sr.did it at age 80.Why not me?I was just 84and in pretty good health.A year went by and I heard nothing.But then at a community party in late April 2009,they announced that I was one of the winners.I just couldn't believe it.Inspired by this,I decided to realize my dream,even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.
On June 11,2009,nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane.My instructor,Jay,guided me through the experience.The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in,but I wasn't frightened-I was really just looking forward to the experience.When we reached 13,000 feet,Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane.When we first hit the air,the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe.For a second I thought,"What have I gotten myself into?"But then everything got calmer.We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute(降落傘),then we just floated downward for about five minutes.Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt-much better than the hot air balloon.I was just enjoying it.
Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life.I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don't stop living just because you are 84years old.If there's something you want to experience,look into it.If it's something that is possible,make it happen.

1.The author mentioned George Bush Sr.in her essay toA.
A.make her argument persuasive    B.show her admiration for him
C.compare their health condition    D.build up her own reputation
2.How did the author feel immediately after she jumped out of the plane?B
A.Excited.B.Regretful.
C.Nervous.D.Scared.
3.What did the author enjoy most when she was skydiving?B
A.The beautiful clouds.B.The wonderful view.
C.The company of Jay.D.The one-minute free fall.
4.What is the best title of the passage?D
A.Impossible is nothing    B.A dream made come true
C.An unforgettable skydiving    D.I Went Skydiving at 84!
